How many solutions are there to 3x-10(x+2) =13-7x

This is the following way to solve this problem:

3x-10(x+2)=13-7x

3x-10x-20=13-7x        (multiply 10 times what's in the parentheses)

-7x-20=13-7x              ( subtract 3x from -10x)

-7x-20-13=-7x             ( since the 13 is positive, when we move it to the other

                                   side, we change it's sign, so now we subtract 13 from 20

-7x-7=-7x

-7=-7x+7x                   ( we do the same thing we did above, now with the -7x)

-7=x

x=-7

x = -7

answer:

total cost for tiles and paints is $924.  

step-by-step explanation:

we have been given that a community hall is in the shape of a cuboid. the hall is 40m long 15m high and 3m wide.

the paint will be required for 4 walls and ceiling.

let us find area of walls and ceiling.

therefore, the area of walls and ceiling is 1410 square meters.

given: cost for 10 litre of paint is $10 and 10 litre paint covers 25 square meter. therefore,

therefore, the total painting cost is $564.

tiles will be required for floor. let us find the area of floor.

given: 1m squared floor tiles costs $3. so,

therefore, the total tiles cost is $360.

now let us find combined total cost of tiles and paint.

therefore, the combined total cost of tiles and paint is $924.
